I swapped my innocence for pride
Crushed the end within my stride
Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear, oh
And I am cold, yes, I'm cold
But not as cold as you are
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
I love the sound of you walking away, walking away, yeah hey
Why don't you walk away?
Why don't you walk away?
Why don't you walk away?
No buildings will fall down
Don't you walk away
No quake will split the ground
Won't you walk away
The sun won't swallow the sky
Won't you walk away?
Statues will not cry
Don't you walk away
Why don't you walk away?
Why don't you walk away?
Why don't you walk away?
Hey
I cannot turn to see those eyes
As apologies may rise
I must be strong and stay an unbeliever
And love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
Mascara bleeds into my eye, oh
And I'm not cold, I am old
At least as old as you are
La la lalala la etc lalalalalalalala
And as you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
My headstone crumbles down
As you walk away
The Hollywood winds will howl
As you walk away
The Kremlin's falling
As you walk away
Radio Four is static
As you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
Hey
The stab of stiletto
On a silent night
Stalin smiles
Hitler laughs
Churchill claps
Mao Tse Tung on the back
Walk Away I swapped my innocence for pride Crushed the end within my stride Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away Mascara bleeds a blackened tear, oh And I am cold, yes, I'm cold But not as cold as you are I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away I love the sound of you walking away, walking away, yeah hey Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away? No buildings will fall down Don't you walk away No quake will split the ground Won't you walk away The sun won't swallow the sky Won't you walk away? Statues will not cry Don't you walk away Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away? Hey I cannot turn to see those eyes As apologies may rise I must be strong and stay an unbeliever And love the sound of you walking away, you walking away Mascara bleeds into my eye, oh And I'm not cold, I am old At least as old as you are La la lalala la etc lalalalalalalala And as you walk away Oh, as you walk away Oh, as you walk away My headstone crumbles down As you walk away The Hollywood winds will howl As you walk away The Kremlin's falling As you walk away Radio Four is static As you walk away Oh, as you walk away Oh, as you walk away Oh, as you walk away Hey The stab of stiletto On a silent night Stalin smiles Hitler laughs Churchill claps Mao Tse Tung on the back Explain Request ×
